I wanted get an IR remote input to Raspberry Pi. I manged to get LIRC installed and tested. Everything was ok, except the very last step. When I wanted pass the IR remote Key value to Python program it doesn’t pass it correctly. It passes null value for anykey. I couldn’t figure out what is

A few weeks ago, I purchased a Raspberry Pi. After reading Eben Upton’s Raspberry Pi User Guide, particularly the two chapters on which he focuses attention on the GPIO, I had an idea for my first project. The post covers the first iteration of a home temperature monitoring project I put together using a Raspberry

inputs which means it is a bit of a pain to use many of the available sensors. I wanted to update my garage security system with the ability to use more sensors so I decided to investigate an easy and cheap way to do it. The MCP3008 was the answer. The MCP3008 is a 10bit

This device is intended to provide the user with a cost-efficient means of determining air quality. Our sensor focuses on the five components of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Air Quality Index: ozone, particulate matter, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrous oxide. This device detects all of these pollutants except sulfur dioxide. The device also includes

o detect a fart with the Raspberry Pi, we need to use a sensor that is responsive to one or more of the volatile sulphuric compounds which make up 1% of flatulence (i.e. the compounds which make farts smell). Essentially, we need to give the Raspberry Pi a nose. The sensor recommended for this project
